Recently the New York State senate voted down a marriage equality bill that would have legalized same-sex marriages performed in that state. One of the state Senators who voted against that bill was Sen. Hiram Monserrate.

Monserrate currently has a court order against him preventing him from seeing the woman he attacked and injured with broken glass. The girlfriend recanted her story and the senator was able to avoid felony charges although he received 3 months probation and 250 hours of community service. He had this to say when he was trying to fight against the court order.

Two adults who are consenting and who are like-minded and within their mental capacities should be allowed to be with each other. I think it’s an outrage.

All I can say senator… Welcome to our world.

  • "...the parade of Anti-gay conservatives who have recently suggested that homosexuality should be re-criminalized or worse."

    A "parade" of them? Name one member of Congress who believes this. (Must you people always be so dishonest & disingenuous in your arguments?)
  • Steve King, Iowa's 5th District.

    And Groups like NOM are the ones being Dishonest and Disingenuous when they claim that banning Marriage Equality is meant to protect children.
  • Thanks for ignoring my point about your intellectual dishonesty. You're a typical homosexual.
  • There is no intellectual dishonesty in pointing out someone's hypocrisy.

    As for the remark "This is another example of typical gay dishonesty--implying that conservatives don't believe that gays "should be allowed to be with each other".

    Conservatives couldn't care less who gays choose to be with."

    That may be true for some conservatives, I am a conservative by the way in some maters, it's certainly not true for all conservatives and it's certainly not true for the parade of Anti-gay conservatives who have recently suggested that homosexuality should be re-criminalized or worse.

    Also, a side note: While your certainly welcome to comment here, I have a zero tolerance policy on personal attacks. I am far from being the "typical homosexual" just as I believe that you are far from being the "typical conservative."
  • "Two adults who are consenting and who are like-minded and within their mental capacities should be allowed to be with each other. I think it’s an outrage.

    "All I can say senator… Welcome to our world."

    This is another example of typical gay dishonesty--implying that conservatives don't believe that gays "should be allowed to be with each other".

    Conservatives couldn't care less who gays choose to be with. We just don't want intolerant homosexuals forcing their beliefs on us, and the fact that you can't even use an honest argument proves that you inherently know that your position can't possibly be defended.
  • But you seem completely ok with forcing your beliefs on us.
